In 2021, Osaka University will celebrate its 90th anniversary. Creating a diverse environment is an important condition for realizing the future vision of Osaka University, which aims to exert a
significant presence while working with society to connect “academic approach”
and “creating social values.” In 2016-17, Osaka University was chosen for the Initiative
for Realizing Diversity in the Research Environment (Collaboration Type), together with the National Institutes of Biomedical
Innovation, Health, and Nutrition (NIBIOHN), and Daikin Industries, Ltd. Currently, through implementation of the cross-appointment system
and joint research, Osaka University is making efforts to form a cycle-oriented
female research development cluster in collaboration with industry and government. This symposium will report the results of the university’s
efforts and discuss a vision to realize diversity with corporate
representatives and practitioners who are taking the initiative to promote
diversity.
